I just put a bunch of work into my old 1996 Explorer 5.0 and am getting P1072 and P1075 codes. I've checked the MAF, air filter, Vacuum leaks etc and everything appears to be fine. Then looking at the scan data I noticed all 4 brand new O2 sensors are almost mirroring each other and this made me remember I had questions when ordering the O2 sensors.
parts.ford.com only lists one Oxygen sensor for my vehicle and that's DY1401 and is described as "downstream".
Rock Auto lists all sorts of things from multiple parts for all four positions, one part number for 3 of 4 position, one part number for the 4th position. And for Bosch they list one for "Downstream or Upstream Left" and one for "Upstream Right".
Autozone lists Bosch 15717 as Upstream "Narrowband. "RIGHT", exact fit or "LEFT"" and 15719 as Upstream "Notes: Actual OE Part, Narrowband. "RIGHT". Alternative Fit 1" with no Bosh listed as Downstream.
What I purchased and installed were 2 x Bosch 15717 for both Upstream and 2 x 15716 for both Downstream.
Was this correct? If not what are the correct parts numbers and combination?
